ALTITUDE
The date 2 October 2018 is a date destined to live long in the memory. That day, Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi walked into his country’s consulate in Istanbul and never came out. There to collect paperwork for his upcoming marriage to Turkish PhD student Hatice Cengiz, Khashoggi was brutally murdered. His death sent shockwaves through the world. “The days that followed the story got crazier and crazier,” says Bryan Fogel, whose new film The Dissident traces the aftermath of Khashoggi’s unlawful killing.
